oh yeah, I get that kommando. I do that alot with rpgs as well, but I was using a walkthrough most of the time with dark souls, so I knew what I was doing when I was building my character and stuff. The sewer is just a *bleep*ing labyrinth, I swear. then a trapdoor springs and I'm stuck in a room with at least fifteen lizards and couldn't get out. I'm going to give it a go tomorrow and see if I can get out of the entire depths and buy some cures, then go to the undead burg and grind for some more fire bombs (<3) and arrows and maybe get some pyro upgrades now that I saved that one dude from the butcher guy.

Beat Demons Souls, last 2 bosses where pretty easy. Overall the game wasn't nearly as hard as people made it out to be, besides Flamelurker. Now NG+? THAT shit is impossible. I only managed to beat Phalanx and Leechmonger and I still can't even reach the goddamn Tower Knight.

I always thought the Maneaters were the worst boss, at least in NG+ assuming you didn't use the fog gate exploit (don't know if they patched that out). With Flamelurker he was a bitch the first time but in NG+ or consecutive playthroughs you either had better gear or just knew what you were doing.

Maneater was such a *bleep*ing nightmare on the first playthrough that I left him for the final boss before finishing the story. Afterwards I guess I must have overleveled because he turned into a total wimp.

I intend on leaving flamelurker and maneater last (though I REALLY want that damn Blueblood sword and I have to defeat the flamelurker first, ugh).

I'm running a thief with a dragonsword and adjucator shield (not the best shield but hey, regen) with lava bow and a silver catalyst to burn or pierce *bleep*ers from afar. I also have a mercury Rapier that keep on hand in case I need to poison something. Can flamelurker get poisoned? I never managed to do so and gave up.

Also I DEFEATED TOWER KNIGHT! I lost 80k souls doing so (so *bleep*ing pissed about that) but I finally, FINALLY did him.

I'm thinking of taking on armor spider next but my strength is only at 18 (meaning no purple flame shield for me). Should I level up and aim for equipping that shield?

Well if you have a dragon sword then Flamelurker will be trouble because he has high fire resistance, assuming that's what you intend to use. Nothing really wrong with the Adjudicator, it has decent stability/guard break reduction. Lava Bow wouldn't really be my choice. As a general thing in souls games you kinda want to decide between Dex and Strength and modify your weapons as such... Blue Dragon is a piece of cake with high Dex and a sticky composite bow for example.

Yeah Flamelurker can be poisoned, a popular strategy is to just spam poison mist until he dies.

Purple Flame would help a lot but I don't think it would really be necessary, something like an upgraded Crescent Falchion would finish him off pretty quickly. Assuming with your magic side you're iinvesting in those stats a bit. Besides, like I said the Adjudicator can absorb a fair bit of stamina damage being a great shield and all.

Nyx and Kuo (however you spell their names) are *bleep*ing awesome. Cole and Zeke actually bring down the quality of the game. Especially Zeke. If I was going to go with a numerical system I'd give this game a 9/10 (-.5 for cole, -.5 for zeke) goddamn those guys are just unlikable.

Why the hell is Zeke still around anyways? Please tell me he dies or something and I don't see him in festival of blood. Currently on my last 2 blast shards before T H E B E A S T comes knockin down my door.

It just so happens I am doing an evil playthrough. Did every evil choice in inFamous and doing it all over again in inFamous 2. Although choosing between Nyx and Kuo is *bleep*ing hard, they are both so epic. But I'll choose Nyx, also thank you for that insinuation. It made me want to finish this game today. Because really, *bleep* zeke.
